Maida Vale
Maida Vale is a suburb in the City of Kalamunda, set along Kalamunda Road with the Sixways intersection at Gooseberry Hill Road. It was first settled in 1873, grew as a district of orchards and small farms from the 1890s, and is now mostly separate houses, with rural land in the south that has been rezoned for future housing.
The housing
The 2021 Census counted 1,763 private dwellings in Maida Vale, and 97.6 per cent of the occupied ones were separate houses. Rural land in the south of the suburb was rezoned for urban development in September 2025.
Shops and cafes
The City of Kalamunda’s Activity Centres Strategy lists the Sixways local centre at Kalamunda Road and Gooseberry Hill Road, a name locals have long used for that junction. It also records an approved local centre at Maida Vale Road and Pinker Crescent, with a small supermarket, cafe, pharmacy and medical centre. An IGA supermarket anchors the shopping centre on Wittenoom Road.
Parks and open space
Maida Vale Reserve and the bushland next to it are a Bush Forever site. The Maida Vale Hall and Netball Centre on Ridge Hill Road has outdoor netball courts and an indoor hall for hire, and Maida Vale Skate Park is on the corner of Ridge Hill Road and Midland Road.
Getting around
Kalamunda Road runs through the suburb. Transperth lists Maida Vale among the suburbs served by route 270, which runs from High Wycombe Station to Elizabeth Quay via Belmont Forum, and on its timetable for routes 272 to 276, which include the 275 and 276 between High Wycombe Station and Kalamunda. The Airport Line has run from High Wycombe Station since 9 October 2022.
Education
Maida Vale Primary School is at 310 Kalamunda Road.
What is coming
On 31 July 2025 the Western Australian Planning Commission approved a neighbourhood shopping centre at 332 Kalamunda Road, near Midland Road, with shops, cafes, offices, a medical centre, a gym and a small liquor store (WAPC minutes, 31 July 2025). News reports name Woolworths as the planned anchor. The approval lapses if building has not substantially started within 36 months.
On 9 September 2025 the Western Australian Planning Commission approved the Maida Vale South amendment, moving about 177.5 hectares bounded by Roe Highway, Sultana Road East and Hawtin Road from Rural to Urban under the Metropolitan Region Scheme. A local structure plan setting out housing, open space and any centre has to be prepared and approved before subdivision can start, and the City said in September 2025 that it had not yet received one.
